What to do when our talking isn't effective

Let our helper create a beautiful flower

Allow the Holy Spirit to a prayer in our hearts as beautiful as a flower. | Source

Our friend is there to help us.

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God. Romans 8:26-27 New Internationa Version

I believe prayer is simply talking with God as my closest friend. Sometimes though my heart isn’t into it or my mind wanders. That is the time I call out to the Holy Spirit to relay to God what I know I want to say to Him. It is a good feeling knowing that even though I may not be able to convey my sentiment and requests the Holy Spirit does and will pass it on to God.

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Immanuel (God amongst us) for the wonderful opportunity to always talk with you. Thank you Holy Spirit got saying the words to our magnificent Father for us when we don’t know the words to use, In the name of the one who speaks to us the best Jesus Christ. Amen

A very "Paraclete-ical" hub! I find that sometimes these distractions are not barriers to prayer--they are stepping stones. If something is burdening me to distraction, it may be best to "go there" in prayer and present THAT as my offering at that moment. Perhaps my distraction is all that I honestly have to offer at that moment--offer it honestly.

I, too, believe that prayer is relational with all the ups and downs of communication. The Holy Spirit does grace us with all the help we need. Thanks for your reflection.

Thank you.

Sometimes I find it difficult to enjoy my morning prayers.

That's when I request the Holy Spirit's help.

God bless you.

A beautiful devotional, and I can relate to the inability to express my feelings. I do thank God for His Holy Spirit.
